Dorieus

Dorieus (546-508 BC) - Spartan prince, the son of king Sparta Anaksandirdas II from an unknown woman. After the death of the father, the Spartans elected king Cleomenes to bypass Dorieus. Then Dorieus left Sparta. He traveled around Libya and Carthage until he was expelled. Later he returned to Peloponess, where the oracle ordered him to build the city of Hercules in Sicily. So did Dorieu later. However, in 508 BC, the Carthaginians destroyed the settlement of Herakleia, killing Dorieus.
